FIELD OF THE INVENTION

[0002] This invention relates to the design, development, composition and use of novel molecules able to modulate the activity of inorganic ion receptor.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

[0003] Certain cells in the body respond not ony to chemical signals, but also to ions such as extracellular calcium ions (Ca²⁺). Changes in the concentration of extracellular Ca²⁺ (referred to herein as “[Ca²⁺]”) alter the functional responses of these cells. One such specialized cell is the parathyroid cell which secretes parathyroid hormone (PTH). PTH is the principal endocrine factor relating Ca²⁺ homeostasis in the blood and extracellular fluids.

[0004] PTH, by acting on bone and kidney cells, increases the level of Ca²⁺ in the blood. This increase in [Ca²⁺] then acts as a negative feedback signal, depressing PTH secretion. The reciprocal relationship between [Ca²⁺] and PTH secretion forms the essential mechanism maintaining bodily Ca²⁺ homeostasis.

[0005] Extracellular Ca²⁺ acts directly on parathyroid cells to regulate PTH secretion. The existence of a parathyroid cell surface protein which detects changes in [Ca²⁺] has been confirmed. Brown et al., 366 Nature 574, 1993. In parathyroid cells, this protein acts as a receptor for extracellular Ca²⁺ (“the calcium receptor”), and detects changes in [Ca²⁺] and to initiate a functional cellular response, PTH secretion.

[0006] Extracellular Ca²⁺ can exert effects on different cell functions, reviewed in Nemeth, et al., 11 Cell Calcium 319, 1990. The role of extracellular Ca²⁺ in parafolicular (C cells) and parathyroid cells is discussed in Nemeth, 11 Cell Calcium 323, 1990. These cells have been shown to express similar Ca²⁺ receptor. Brown et al., 366 Nature 574, 1993; Mithal et al., 9 Suppl. 1 J. Bone and Mineral Res. s282, 1994; Rogers et al., 9 Suppl. 1 J. Bone and Mineral Res. s409 1994; Garrett et al., 9 Suppl. 1 J. Bone and Mineral Res. s409, 1994. The role of extracellular Ca²⁺ on bone osteoclasts is discussed by Zaidi, 10 Bioscience Reports 493, 1990. In addition keratinocytes, juxtaglomerular cells, trophoblasts, pancreatic beta cells and fat/adipose cells all respond to increases in extracellular calcium which likely reflects activation of calcium receptors of these cells.

[0007] The ability of various compounds to mimic extracellular Ca²⁺ in vitro is discussed by Nemeth et al., (spermine and spermidine) in “Calcium-Binding Proteins in Health and Disease”, 1987, Academic Press, Inc., pp. 33-35; Brown et al., (e.g., neomycin) 128 Endocrinology 3047, 1991; Chen et al., (diltiazem and its analog, TA-3090) 5 J. Bone and Mineral Res. 581, 1990; and Zaidi et al., (verapamil) 167 Biochem. Biophys. Res. Commun. 807, 1990. Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959, Nemeth et al., PCT/US92/07175, International Publication Number WO 93/04373, Nemeth et al., PCT/US94/12117, International Publication Number WO 95/11221 and Nemeth et al., PCT/US95/13704, International Publication Number WO 96/12697 describe various compounds which can modulate the effect of an inorganic ion on a cell having an inorganic ion receptor, preferably modulate the effects of calcium on a calcium receptor.

[0008] The object of the present invention is to provide a novel inorganic ion receptor active compound having the structure different from the compounds described above.

[0091] The present invention provides a method for modulating calcium receptor activity by using a compound described herein. The featured compounds preferably modulate an interaction of Ca²⁺ with Ca²⁺ receptors by mimicking (including potentiating) the effect of Ca²⁺ on a Ca²⁺ receptor (calcimimetic modulation) or blocking the effect of Ca²⁺ on a Ca²⁺ receptor (calcilytic modulation); preferably calcimimetic modulation.

[0092] Also provided is a method for the treatment in a patient of disorders characterized by an abnormal concentrations of one or more inorganic ions or other physiological biochemical substances, the concentration of which is regulated by an activity of one or more calcium receptors. In particular, treatment using the compounds disclosed hereof is contemplated for disorders characterized by abnormal extracellular Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]) or abnormal intracellular Ca²⁺ concentration ([Ca²⁺]_(i)) in one or more cells including for example, but without limitation, parathyroid cells, bone osteoclasts, juxtaglomerular kidney cells, proximal tubule kidney cells, keratinocytes, parafollicular thyroid cells and placental trophoblasts.

[0093] An “abnormal” state is characterized by a level of a property that is statistically different from the level of that property observed in patients not suffering from a particular disorder. Thus, for example, the term “abnormal” as it relates to inorganic ion concentrations refers to a concentration of the ion in question which would be recognized by members of the medical community as being outside the normal range of such ion concentration in healthy patients.

[0094] As used herein, the terms “treat”, “treating” and “treatment” refer to a method of alleviating, abrogating, and/or having a prophylactic effect with regard to, a disease or disorder and/or one or more, preferably all, its attendant symptoms.

[0095] In another aspect, the present invention provides a method for the treatment or prevention of primary and secondary hyperparathyroidism, renalosteodystrophy, hypercalcemia malignancy, osteoporosis, Paget's disease and hypertension comprising administering a therapeutically effective amount of a compound of this invention to a patient.

[0096] The term “administering” as used herein refers to a method for introducing a compound of this invention in vitro or in viva. Thus, for example, the importance of inorganic ion receptor activity can be studied and associated diseases and disorders prevented or treated by the compounds and methods set forth herein. Cells existing outside the organism can be maintained or grown in cell culture dishes. In this context, the ability of a particular compound to affect an inorganic ion receptor activity can be determined; i.e., the IC50 or EC50, preferably the EC50, of a compound, defined below, before the use of the compounds in complex multicellular living organisms such as a human is attempted. For cells outside the organism, multiple methods exist, and are well-known to those skilled in the arts, to administer compounds including, but not limited to, cell micro-injection, transformation and numerous carrier techniques.

[0097] For cells harbored within a multicellular living organism, myriad methods also exist, and are likewise well-known to those skilled in the art, to administer compounds including, but not limited to, oral, parenteral, dermal, injection and aerosol applications.

[0098] The present invention features a method for the modulation of one or more activities of an inorganic ion receptor using the compounds disclosed herein. Preferably, the inorganic ion receptor is a Ca²⁺ receptor. The compounds of this invention can either mimic (including potentiation) or block the effect of extracellular Ca²⁺ on a calcium receptor. The preferred use of such compounds is to treat selected disorders by modulating the inorganic ion receptor activity. In particular the compounds of this invention can be used to treat the indicated disorders by modulating Ca²⁺ receptor activity.

[0099] Extracellular Ca²⁺ is under tight homeostatic control and controls various processes such as blood clotting, nerve and muscle excitability, and proper bone formation. Calcium receptor proteins enable certain specialized cells to respond to changes in extracellular Ca²⁺ concentration. For example, extracellular Ca²⁺ inhibits the secretion of parathyroid hormone from parathyroid cells, inhibits bone resorption by osteoclasts, and stimulates secretion of calcitonin from C-cells.

[0100] Compounds modulating inorganic ion receptor activity can be used to treat diseases or disorders by affecting one or more activities of an inorganic ion receptor resulting in a beneficial effect to the patient. For example, osteoporosis is an age related disorder characterized by loss of bone mass and increased risk of bone fracture. Compounds blocking osteoclastic bone resorption either directly (e.g., a osteoclast ionmimetic compound) or indirectly by increasing endogenous calcitonin levels (e.g., a C-cell ionmimetic), and/or by decreasing parathyroid hormone levels (e.g., a parathyroid cell ionmimetic) can retard bone loss and, thus, result in beneficial effects to patients suffering from osteoporosis.

[0101] In addition, it is known that intermittent low dosing with PTH results in an anabolic effect on bone mass and appropriate bone remodeling. Thus, compounds and dosing regiments evoking transient increases in parathyroid hormone (e.g., intermittent dosing with a parathyroid cell ionlytic) can increase bone mass in patients suffering from osteoporosis.

[0102] Additionally, diseases or disorders characterized by a defect in one or more inorganic ion receptor activities may be treated by the present invention. For example, certain forms of primary hyperparathyroidism are characterized by abnormally high levels of parathyroid hormone and decreased parathyroid gland responsiveness to circulating calcium. Calcium receptor modulating agents can be used to modulate parathyroid cell responsiveness to calcium.

[0103] Preferably, the compound modulates calcium receptor activity and is used in the treatment of diseases or disorders which can be affected by modulating one or more activities of a calcium receptor. Preferably, the disease or disorder is characterized by abnormal bone and mineral homeostasis, more preferably calcium homeostasis.

[0104] Abnormal calcium homeostasis is characterized by one or more of the following activities: (1) an abnormal increase or decrease in serum calcium; (2) an abnormal increase or decrease in urinary excretion of calcium; (3) an abnormal increase or decrease in bone calcium levels, for example, as assessed by bone mineral density measurements; (4) an abnormal absorption of dietary calcium; and (5) an abnormal increase or decrease in the production and/or release of circulating messengers or hormones which affect calcium homeostasis such as parathyroid hormone and calcitonin. The abnormal increase or decrease in these different aspects of calcium homeostasis is relative to that occurring in the general population and is generally associated with a disease or disorder.

[0105] More generally, a molecule which modulates the activity of an inorganic ion receptor is useful in the treatment of diseases characterized by abnormal inorganic ion homeostasis. Preferably, the molecule modulates one or more effects of an inorganic ion receptor: Inorganic ion receptor modulating agents include ionmimetics, ionlytics, calcimimetics, and calcilytics.

[0106] Ionmimetics are molecules which mimic the effects of increasing ion concentration at an inorganic ion receptor. Preferably, the molecule affects one or more calcium receptor activities. Calcimimetics are ionmimetics which affect one or more calcium receptor activities and preferably binds to a calcium receptor.

[0107] Ionlytics are molecules which reduce or block one or more activities caused by an inorganic ion on an inorganic ion receptor. Preferably, the molecule inhibits one or more calcium receptor activities. Calcilytics are ionlytics which inhibit one or more calcium receptor activities evoked by extracellular calcium and preferably bind to a calcium receptor.

[0108] Inorganic ion receptor modulating agents can be formulated as pharmacological agents or compositions to facilitate administration in a patient. Pharmacological agents or compositions are agents or compositions in a form suitable for administration into a mammal, preferably a human. considerations concerning forms suitable for administration are known in the art and include toxic effects, solubility, route of administration, and maintaining activity.

[0109] Other aspects of the present invention feature methods for using the agents described herein for treating diseases or disorders by modulating inorganic ion receptor activity. Patients in need of such treatments can be identified by standard medical techniques, such as routine blood analysis. For example, by detecting a deficiency of protein whose production or secretion is affected by changes in inorganic ion concentrations, or by detecting abnormal levels of inorganic ions or hormones which effect inorganic ion homeostasis.

[0110] Therapeutic methods involve administering to the patient a therapeutically effective amount of an inorganic ion receptor modulating agent. In preferred embodiments these methods are used to treat a disease or disorder characterized by abnormal inorganic ion homeostasis, more preferably a disease or disorder characterized by abnormal calcium homeostasis. Diseases and disorders characterized by abnormal calcium homeostasis include hyperparathyroidism, osteoporosis, renalosteodystrophy and other bone and mineral-related disorders, and the like (as described, e.g., in standard medical text books, such as “Harrison's Principles of Internal Medicine”). Such diseases and disorders are treated using calcium receptor modulating agents which mimic or block one or more of the effects of Ca²⁺ and, thereby, directly or indirectly affect the levels of proteins or other molecules in the body of the patient.

[0111] By “therapeutically effective amount” is meant an amount of an agent which relieves to some extent one or more symptoms of the disease or disorder in the patient; or returns to normal either partially or completely one or more physiological or biochemical parameters associated with or causative of the disease or disorder.

[0112] In a preferred embodiment, the patient has a disease or disorder characterized by an abnormal level of one or more calcium receptor regulated components and the molecule is active on a calcium receptor of a cell selected from the group consisting of parathyroid cell, bone osteoclast, juxtaglomerular kidney cell, proximal tubule kidney cell, distal tubule kidney cell, central nervous system cell, peripheral nervous system cell, cell of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and/or collecting duct, keratinocyte in the epidermis, parafollicular cell in the thyroid (C-cell), intestinal cell, trophoblast in the placenta, platelet, vascular smooth muscle cell, cardiac atrial cell, gastrin-secreting cell, glucagon-secreting cell, kidney mesangial cell, mammary cell, beta cell, fat/adipose cell, immune cell and GI tract cell.

[0113] More preferably, the cell is a parathyroid cell and the molecule reduces the level of parathyroid hormone in the serum of the patient, even more preferably the level is reduced to a degree sufficient to cause a decrease in plasma Ca²⁺ most preferably the parathyroid hormone level is reduced to that present in a normal individual.

[0114] Thus, the present invention features agents and methods useful in the treatment of diseases and disorders by modulating inorganic ion receptor activity. For example, the molecules of the present invention can be used to target calcium receptors on different cell types that detect and respond to changes to external calcium. For example, molecules mimicking external calcium may be used to selectively depress secretion of parathyroid hormone from parathyroid cells, or depress bone resorption by osteoclasts, or stimulate secretion of calcitonin from C-cells. Such molecules can be used to treat diseases or disorders characterized by abnormal calcium homeostasis such as hyperparathyroidism, renalosteodystrophy and osteoporosis.

[0115] Other features and advantages of the invention will be apparent from the following description of the preferred embodiments thereof and from the claims.

PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION

[0212] The present invention describes inorganic ion receptor modulating agents able to mimic or block an effect of an inorganic ion at an inorganic ion receptor. The preferred use of inorganic ion receptor modulating agents is to treat a disease or disorder by modulating inorganic ion receptor activity. Preferably, the molecules are used to treat diseases or disorders characterized by abnormal ion homeostasis, more preferably abnormal calcium homeostasis. Other uses of inorganic ion receptor modulating agents, such as diagnostics uses, are known in the art. Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959.

[0213] I. Calcium Receptors

[0214] Calcium receptors and nucleic acid encoding calcium receptors are described by Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959. Calcium receptors are present on different cell types such as parathyroid cell, bone osteoclast, juxtaglomerular kidney cell, proximal tubule kidney cell, distal tubule kidney cell, central nervous system cell, peripheral nervous system cell, cell of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and/or collecting duct, keratinocyte in the epidermis, parafollicular cell in the thyroid (C-cell), intestinal cell, trophoblast in the placenta, platelet, vascular smooth muscle cell, cardiac atrial cell, gastrin-secreting cell, glucagon-secreting cell, kidney mesangial cell, mammary cell, beta cell, fat/adipose cell, immune cell, and GI tract cell. The calcium receptor on these cell types may be different. It is also possible that a cell can have more than one type of calcium receptor.

[0215] Comparison of calcium receptor activities and amino acid sequences from different cells indicate that distinct calcium receptor types exist. For example, calcium receptors can respond to a variety of di- and trivalent cations. The parathyroid calcium receptor responds to calcium and Gd³⁺, while osteoclasts respond to divalent cations such as calcium but does not respond to Gd³⁺. Thus, the parathyroid calcium receptor is pharmacologically distinct from calcium receptor on the osteoclast.

[0216] On the other hand, the nucleic acid sequences encoding calcium receptors present in parathyroid cells and C-cells indicate that these receptors have a very similar amino acid structure. Nevertheless, calcimimetic compounds exhibit differential pharmacology and regulate different activities at parathyroid cells and C-cells. Thus, pharmacological properties of calcium receptors may vary significantly depending upon the cell type or organ in which they are expressed even though the calcium receptors may have similar structures.

[0217] Calcium receptors, in general, have a low affinity for extracellular Ca²⁺ (apparent K_(d) generally greater than about 0.5 mM). Calcium receptors may include a free or bound effector mechanism as defined by Cooper, Bloom and Roth, “The Biochemical Basis of Neuropharmacology”, Ch. 4, and are thus distinct from intracellular calcium receptors, e.g., calmodulin and the troponins.

[0218] Calcium receptors respond to changes in extracellular calcium levels. The exact changes depend on the particular receptor and cell line containing the receptor. For example, the in vitro effect of calcium on the calcium receptor in a parathyroid cell include the following:

[0219] 1. An increase in internal calcium. The increase is due to the influx of external calcium and/or mobilization of internal calcium. Characteristics of the increase in internal calcium include the following:

[0220] (a) A rapid (time to peak <5 seconds) and transient increase in [Ca²⁺]_(i), that is refractory to inhibition by 1 mM La³⁺ or 1 mM Gd³⁺ and is abolished by pretreatment with ionomycin (in the absence of extracellular Ca²⁺);

[0221] (b) The increase is not inhibited by dihydropyridines;

[0222] (c) The transient increase is abolished by pretreatment for 10 minutes with 10 mM sodium fluoride;

[0223] (d) The transient increase is diminished by pretreatment with an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), such as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), mezerein or (−)-indolactam V. The overall effect of the protein kinase C activator is to shift the concentration-response curve to calcium to the right without affecting the maximal response; and

[0224] (e) Treatment with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml for >4 hours) does not affect the increase.

[0225] 2. A rapid (<30 seconds) increase in the formation of inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate or diacylglycerol. Treatment with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml for >4 hours) does not affect this increase;

[0226] 3. The inhibition of dopamine- and isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP formation. This effect is blocked by pretreatment with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml for >4 hours); and

[0227] 4. The inhibition of PTH secretion. Treatment with pertussis toxin (100 ng ml for >4 hours) does not affect the inhibition in PTH secretion.

[0228] Using techniques known in the art, the effect of calcium on other calcium receptors in different cells can be readily determined. Such effects may be similar in regard to the increase in internal calcium observed in parathyroid cells. However, the effect is expected to differ in other aspects, such as causing or inhibiting the release of a hormone other than parathyroid hormone.

[0229] II. Inorganic Ion Receptor Modulating Agents

[0230] Inorganic ion receptor modulating agents either evokes one or more inorganic ion receptor activities, or blocks one or more inorganic ion receptor activities caused by an extracellular inorganic ion. Calcium receptor modulating agents can mimic or block an effect of extracellular Ca²⁺ on a calcium receptor. Preferred calcium receptor modulating agents are calcimimetics and calcilytics.

[0231] Inorganic ion receptor modulating agents can be identified by screening molecules which are modeled after a molecule shown to have a particular activity (i.e., a lead molecule). Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959.

[0232] Preferred inorganic ion receptor modulation agents described by the present invention have considerably low EC₅₀ values.

[0233] The EC₅₀ is the concentration of the molecule which evokes a half-maximal effect. The IC₅₀ is the concentration of molecule which causes a half-maximal blocking effect. The EC₅₀ or IC₅₀ can be determined by assaying one or more of the activities of an inorganic ion at an inorganic ion receptor. Preferably, such assays are specific to a particular calcium receptor. For example, assays which measure hormones whose production or secretion is modulated by a particular inorganic ion receptor are preferred.

[0234] Increases in [Ca²⁺]_(i) can be detected using standard techniques such as by using fluorimetric indicators or by measuring an increase in Cl⁻ current in a Xenopus oocyte injected with nucleic acid coding for a calcium receptor. Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959. For example, poly(A)⁺ mRNA can be obtained from cells expressing a calcium receptor, such as a parathyroid cell, bone osteoclast, juxtaglomerular kidney cell, proximal tubule kidney cell, distal tubule kidney cell, cell of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and/or collecting duct, keratinocyte in the epidermis, parafollicular cell in the thyroid (C-cell), intestinal cell, central nervous system cell, peripheral nervous system cell, trophoblast in the placenta, platelet, vascular smooth muscle cell, cardiac atrial cell, gastrin-secreting cell, glucagon-secreting cell, kidney mesangial cell, mammary cell, beta cell, fat/adipose cell, immune cell, and GI tract cell. Preferably, the nucleic acid is from a parathyroid cell, C-cell, or osteoclast. More preferably, the nucleic acid encodes a calcium receptor and is present on a plasmid or vector.

[0235] Preferably, the molecule is either a calcimimetic or calcilytic having an EC₅₀ or IC₅₀ at a calcium receptor of less than or equal to 5 mM, and even more preferably less than or equal to 1 mM, 100 nmolar, 10 nmolar, or 1 nmolar. Such lower EC₅₀'s or IC₅₀'s are advantageous since they allow lower concentrations of molecules to be used in vivo or in vitro for therapy or diagnosis. The discovery of molecules with such low EC₅₀'s and IC₅₀'s enables the design and synthesis of additional molecules having similar potency and effectiveness.

[0236] In preferred embodiments the calcium receptor modulating agent is a calcimimetic which inhibits parathyroid hormone secretion from a parathyroid cell in vitro and decreases PTH secretion in vivo; stimulates calcitonin secretion from a C-cell in vitro and elevates calcitonin levels in vivo; or blocks osteoclastic bone resorption in vitro and inhibits bone resorption in vivo.

[0237] In another preferred embodiment the calcium receptor modulating agent is a calcilytic which evokes the secretion of parathyroid hormone from parathyroid cells in vitro and elevates the level of parathyroid hormone in vivo.

[0238] Preferably, the agent selectively targets inorganic ion receptor activity, more preferably calcium receptor activity, in a particular cell. By “selectively” is meant that the molecule exerts a greater effect on inorganic ion receptor activity in one cell type than at another cell type for a given concentration of agent. Preferably, the differential effect is 10-fold or greater. Preferably, the concentration refers to blood plasma concentration and the measured effect is the production of extracellular messengers such as plasma calcitonin, parathyroid hormone or plasma calcium. For example, in a preferred embodiment, the agent selectively targets PTH secretion over calcitonin secretion.

[0239] In another preferred embodiment, the molecule has an EC₅₀ or IC₅₀ less than or equal to 1 mM at one or more, but not all cells chosen from the group consisting of parathyroid cell, bone osteoclast, juxtaglomerular kidney cell, proximal tubule kidney cell, distal tubule kidney cell, cell of the thick ascending limb of Henle's loop and/or collecting duct, central nervous system cell, peripheral nervous system cell, keratinocyte in the epidermis, parafollicular cell in the thyroid (C-cell), intestinal cell, trophoblast in the placenta, platelet, vascular smooth muscle cell, cardiac atrial cell, gastrin-secreting cell, glucagon-secreting cell, kidney mesangial call, mammary cell, beta cell, fat/adipose cell, immune cell and GI tract cell.

[0240] Preferably, inorganic ion receptor modulating agents mimic or block all of the effects of extracellular ion in a cell having an inorganic ion receptor. For example, calcium receptor modulating agents preferably mimic or block all of the effects of extracellular ion in a cell having a calcium receptor. Calcimimetics need not possess all the biological activities of extracellular Ca²⁺, but, rather, at least one such activity is mimicked. Similarly, calcilytics need not reduce or prevent all of the activities caused by extracellular calcium. Additionally, different calcimimetics and different calcilytics do not need to bind to the same site on the calcium receptor as does extracellular Ca²⁺ to exert their effects.

[0241] A. Calcimimetics

[0242] The ability of molecules to mimic or block the activity of Ca²⁺ at calcium receptors can be determined using procedures known in the art and described by Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959. For example, calcimimetics possess one or more and preferably all of the following activities when tested on parathyroid cells in vitro:

[0243] 1. The molecule causes a rapid (time to peak <5 seconds) and transient increase in [Ca²⁺]_(i) that is refractory to inhibition by 1 mM La³⁺ or 1 mM Gd³⁺. The increase in [Ca²⁺]_(i) persists in the absence of extracellular Ca²⁺ but is abolished by pretreatment with ionomycin (in the absence of extracellular Ca²⁺);

[0244] 2. The molecule potentiates increases in [Ca²⁺]_(i) elicited by submaximal concentrations of extracellular Ca²⁺;

[0245] 3. The increase in [Ca²⁺]_(i) elicited by extracellular Ca²⁺ is not inhibited by dihydropyridines;

[0246] 4. The transient increase in [Ca²⁺ caused by the molecule is abolished by pretreatment for 10 minutes with 10 mM sodium fluoride;

[0247] 5. The transient increase in [Ca²⁺]_(i) caused by the molecule is diminished by pretreatment with an activator of protein kinase C (PKC), such as phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), mezerein or (−)-indolactam V. The overall effect of the protein kinase C activator is to shift the concentration-response curve of the molecule to the right without affecting the maximal response;

[0248] 6. The molecule causes a rapid (<30 seconds) increase in the formation-of inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate and/or diacylglycerol;

[0249] 7. The molecule inhibits dopamine- or isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP formation;

[0250] 8. The molecule inhibits PTH secretion;

[0251] 9. Pretreatment with pertussis toxin (100 ng/ml for >4 hours) blocks the inhibitory effect of the molecule on cyclic AMP formation but does not effect increases in [Ca²⁺]_(i), inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate, or diacylglycerol, nor decreases in PTH secretion;

[0252] 10. The molecule elicits increases in Cl⁻current in Xenopus oocytes injected with poly (A)⁺-enriched mRNA from bovine or human parathyroid cells, but is without effect in Xenopus oocytes injected with water, or rat brain or liver mRNA; and

[0253] 11. Similarly, using a cloned calcium receptor from a parathyroid cell, the molecule will elicit a response in Xenopus oocytes injected with the specific cDNA or mRNA encoding the receptor.

[0254] Different calcium activities can be measured using available techniques. Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959. Parallel definitions of molecules mimicking Ca²⁺ activity on other calcium responsive cell, preferably at a calcium receptor, are evident from the examples provided herein and Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959.

[0255] Preferably, the agent as measured by the bioassays described herein, or by Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959, has one or more, more preferably all of the following activities: evokes a transient increase in internal calcium, having a duration of less that 30 seconds (preferably by mobilizing internal calcium); evokes a rapid increase in [Ca²⁺]_(i), occurring within thirty seconds; evokes a sustained increase (greater than thirty seconds) in [Ca²⁺]_(i) (preferably by causing an influx of external calcium); evokes an increase in inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate or diacylglycerol levels, preferably within less than 60 seconds; and inhibits dopamine- or isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP formation.

[0256] The transient increase in [Ca^(2+]) _(i) is preferably abolished by pretreatment of the cell for ten minutes with 10 mM sodium fluoride, or the transient increase is diminished by brief pretreatment (not more than ten minutes) of the cell with an activator of protein kinase C, preferably, phorbol myristate acetate (PMA), mezerein or (−)-indolactam V.

[0257] B. Calcilytics

[0258] The ability of a molecule to block the activity of external calcium can be determined using standard techniques. Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959. For example, molecules which block the effect of external calcium, when used in reference to a parathyroid cell, possess one or more, and preferably all of the following characteristics when tested on parathyroid cells in vitro:

[0259] 1. The molecule blocks, either partially or completely, the ability of increased concentrations of extracellular Ca²⁺ to:

[0260] (a) increase [Ca²⁺]_(i)

[0261] (b) mobilize intracellular Ca²⁺,

[0262] (c) increase the formation of inositol-1,4,5-triphosphate,

[0263] (d) decrease dopamine- or isoproterenol-stimulated cyclic AMP formation, and

[0264] (e) inhibit PTH secretion;

[0265] 2. The molecule blocks increases in Cl⁻ current in Xenopus oocytes injected with poly (A)⁺ mRNA from bovine or human parathyroid cells elicited by extracellular Ca²⁺ or calcimimetic compounds, but not in Xenopus oocytes injected with water or liver mRNA;

[0266] 3. Similarly, using a cloned calcium receptor from a parathyroid cell, the molecule will block a response in Xenopus oocytes injected with the specific cDNA, mRNA or cRNA encoding the calcium receptor, elicited by extracellular Ca²⁺ or a calcimimetic compound.

[0267] Parallel definitions of molecules blocking Ca²⁺ activity on a calcium responsive cell, preferably at a calcium receptor, are evident from the examples provided herein and Nemeth et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication Number WO 94/18959.

[0268] III. Treatment of Diseases or Disorders

[0269] A preferred use of the compounds described by the present invention is in the treatment or prevention of different diseases or disorders by modulating inorganic ion receptor activity. The inorganic ion receptor modulating agents of the present invention can exert an affect on a inorganic ion receptor causing one or more cellular effects ultimately producing a therapeutic effect.

[0270] Different diseases and disorders can be treated by the present invention by targeting cells having an inorganic ion receptor, such as a calcium receptor. For example, primary hyperparathyroidism (HPT) is characterized by hypercalcemia and elevated levels of circulating PTH. A defect associated with the major type of HPT is a diminished sensitivity of parathyroid cells to negative feedback regulation by extracellular Ca²⁺. Thus, in tissue from patients with primary HPT, the “set-point” for extracellular Ca²⁺ is shifted to the right so that higher than normal concentrations of extracellular Ca²⁺ are required to depress PTH secretion. Moreover, in primary HPT, even high concentrations of extracellular Ca²⁺ often depress PTH secretion only partially. In secondary (uremic) HPT, a similar increase in the set-point for extracellular Ca²⁺ is observed even though the degree to which Ca²⁺ suppresses PTH secretion is normal. The changes in PTH secretion are paralleled by changes in [Ca^(2+]) _(i): the set-point for extracellular Ca²⁺-induced increases in [Ca²⁺]_(i) is shifted to the right and the magnitude of such increases is reduced.

[0271] Molecules that mimic the action of extracellular Ca²⁺ are beneficial in the long-term management of both primary and secondary HPT. Such molecules provide the added impetus required to suppress PTH secretion which the hypercalcemic condition alone cannot achieve and, thereby, help to relieve the hypercalcemic condition. Molecules with greater efficacy than extracellular Ca²⁺ may overcome the apparent nonsuppressible component of PTH secretion which is particularly troublesome in adenomatous tissue. Alternatively or additionally, such molecules can depress synthesis of PTH, as prolonged hypercalcemia has been shown to depress the levels of preproPTH mRNA in bovine and human adenomatous parathyroid tissue. Prolonged hypercalcemia also depresses parathyroid cell proliferation in vitro, so calcimimetics can also be effective in limiting the parathyroid cell hyperplasia characteristic of secondary HPT.

[0272] Cells other than parathyroid cells can respond directly to physiological changes in the concentration of extracellular Ca²⁺. For example, calcitonin secretion from parafollicular cells in the thyroid (C-cells) is regulated by changes in the concentration of extracellular Ca²⁺.

[0273] Isolated osteoclasts respond to increases in the concentration of extracellular Ca²⁺ with corresponding increases in [Ca²⁺]_(i) that arise partly from the mobilization of intracellular Ca²⁺. Increases in [Ca²⁺]_(i) in osteoclasts are associated with the inhibition of bone resorption. Release of alkaline phosphatase from bone-forming osteoblasts is directly stimulated by calcium.

[0274] Renin secretion from juxtaglomerular cells in the kidney, like PTH secretion, is depressed by increased concentrations of extracellular Ca²⁺. Extracellular Ca²⁺ causes the mobilization of intracellular Ca²⁺ in these cells. Other kidney cells respond to calcium as follows:

[0275] elevated Ca²⁺ inhibits formation of 1,25 (OH)₂-vitamin D by proximal tubular cells, stimulates production of calcium-binding protein in distal tubular cells, and inhibits tubular reabsorption of Ca²⁺ and Mg²⁺ and the action of vasopressin on the medullary thick ascending limb of Henle's loop (MTAL), reduces vasopressin action in the cortical collecting duct cells, and affects vascular smooth muscle cells in blood vessels of the renal glomerulus.

[0276] Calcium also promotes the differentiation of intestinal goblet cells, mammary cells, and skin cells; inhibits atrial natriuretic peptide secretion from cardiac atria; reduces cAMP accumulation in platelets; alters gastrin and glucagon secretion; acts on vascular smooth muscle cells to modify cell secretion of vasoactive factors; and affects cells of the central nervous system and peripheral nervous system.

[0277] Thus, there are sufficient indications to suggest that Ca²⁺, in addition to its ubiquitous role as an intracellular signal, also functions as an extracellular signal to regulate the responses of certain specialized cells. Molecules of this invention can be used in the treatment of diseases or disorders associated with disrupted Ca²⁺ responses in these cells.

[0278] Specific diseases and disorders which might be treated or prevented, based upon the affected cells, also include those of the central nervous system such as seizures, stroke, head trauma, spinal cord injury, hypoxia-induced nerve cell damage such as in cardiac arrest or neonatal distress, epilepsy, neurodegenerative diseases such as Alzheimer's disease, Huntington's disease and Parkinson's disease, dementia, muscle tension, depression, anxiety, panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, post-traumatic stress disorder, schizophrenia, neuroleptic malignant syndrome, and Tourette's syndrome; diseases involving excess water reabsorption by the kidney such as syndrome of inappropriate ADH secretion (SIAH), cirrhosis, heart failure, and nephrosis; hypertension; preventing and/or decreasing renal toxicity from cationic antibiotics (e.g., aminoglycoside antibiotics); gut motility disorders such as diarrhea, and spastic colon; GI ulcer diseases; GI absorption diseases such as sarcoidosis; and autoimmune diseases and organ transplant rejection.

[0279] While inorganic ion receptor modulating agents of the present invention will typically be used in therapy for human patients, they may be used to treat similar or identical diseases or disorders in other warm-blooded animal species such as other primates, farm animals such as swine, cattle, and poultry; and sports animals and pets such as horses, dogs and cats.

[0280] IV. Administration

[0281] A compound of the present invention, or its pharmaceutically acceptable salt, hydrate or prodrug, can be administered to a human patient per se, or in pharmaceutical compositions where it is mixed with suitable carriers or excipient(s). Techniques for formulation and administration of drugs may be found in “Remington's Pharmaceutical Sciences,” Mack Publishing Co., Easton, Pa., latest edition. Administration of ionmimetics and ionlytics is discussed by Nemeth, et al., PCT/US93/01642, International Publication No. WO 94/18959.

[0282] A “pharmaceutical composition” refers to a mixture of one or more of the compounds described herein, or pharmaceutically acceptable salts, hydrates or prodrugs thereof, with other chemical components, such as physiologically acceptable carriers and excipients. The purpose of a pharmacological composition is to facilitate administration of a compound to an organism.

[0283] A “prodrug” refers to an agent which is converted into the parent drug in viva. Prodrugs are often useful because, in some situations, they may be easier to administer than the parent drug. They may, for instance, be bioavailable by oral administration whereas the parent drug is not. The prodrug may also have improved solubility in pharmacological compositions over the parent drug. An example, without limitation, of a prodrug would be a compound of the present invention wherein it is administered as an ester (the “prodrug”) to facilitate transmittal across a cell membrane where water solubility is not beneficial, but then it is metabolically hydrolyzed to the carboxylic acid once inside the cell where water solubility is beneficial.

[0284] As used herein, an “ester” is a carboxyl group, as defined herein, wherein R″ is any of the listed groups other than hydrogen.

[0285] As used herein, a “physiologically acceptable carrier” refers to a carrier or diluent that does not cause significant irritation to an organism and does not abrogate the biological activity and properties of the administered compound.

[0286] An “excipient” refers to an inert substance added to a pharmacological composition to further facilitate administration of a compound. Examples, without limitation, of excipients include calcium carbonate, calcium phosphate, various sugars and types of starch, cellulose derivatives, gelatin, vegetable oils and polyethylene glycols.

[0287] Suitable forms, in part, depend upon the use or the route of entry, for example oral, transdermal, or by injection. Such forms should allow the agent to reach a target cell whether the target cell is present in a multicellular host or in culture. For example, pharmacological agents or compositions injected into the blood stream should be soluble in the concentrations used. Other factors are known in the art, and include considerations such as toxicity and forms which prevent the agent or composition from exerting its effect.

[0288] Agents can also be formulated as pharmaceutically acceptable salts (e.g., acid addition salts) and complexes thereof. The preparation of such salts can facilitate the pharmacological use by altering the physical characteristics of the agent without preventing it from exerting its physiological effect. Examples of useful alterations in physical properties include lowering the melting point to facilitate transmucosal administration and increasing the solubility to facilitate administering higher concentrations of the drug.

[0289] For systemic administration, oral administration is preferred. Alternatively, injection may be used, e.g., intramuscular, intravenous, intraperitoneal, and subcutaneous. For injection, the molecules of the invention are formulated in liquid solutions, preferably in physiologically compatible buffers such as Hank's solution or Ringer's solution. In addition, the molecules may be formulated in solid form and redissolved or suspended immediately prior to use. Lyophilized forms can also be produced.

[0290] Systemic administration can also be by transmucosal or transdermal means, or the molecules can be administered orally. For transmucosal or transdermal administration, penetrants appropriate to the barrier to be permeated are used in the formulation. Such penetrants are generally known in the art, and include, for example, for transmucosal administration, bile salts and fusidic acid derivatives. In addition, detergents may be used to facilitate permeation. Transmucosal administration may be through nasal sprays, for example, or using suppositories. For oral administration, the molecules are formulated into conventional oral administration dosage forms such as capsules, tablets, and tonics.

[0291] For topical administration, the molecules of the invention are formulated into ointments, salves, gels, or creams, as is generally known in the art.

[0292] Generally, a therapeutically effective amount is between about 1 mmole and 3 mmole of the molecule, preferably 0.1 mmole and 1 mmole depending on its EC₅₀ or IC₅₀ and on the age and size of the patient, and the disease or disorder associated with the patient. Generally it is an amount between about 0.1 and 50 mg/kg, preferably 0.01 and 20 mg/kg, animal to be treated.

[1406] The compound of the present invention was administered to rats so as to examine the effects of the compound on the plasma calcium ion level and serum PTH level. The test was performed by orally administering single dose of the compound of the invention or a control compound to normal male SD rats with six animals in each group.

[1407] To the group 1 was administered as a control a 10% cyclodextrin aqueous solution in a dose of 2.5 ml/kg. To the group 2 was administered as a reference (R)-N-(3-(2-chlorophenyl)propyl)-1-(3-methoxyphenyl)ethylamine (KRN568) dissolved in a 10% cyclodextrin aqueous solution in a dose of 30 μmol/kg. To the group 3 was administered the compound of the present invention dissolved in a 10% cyclodextrin aqueous solution in a dose of 30 μmol/kg, provided that 1% sodium-CMC aqueous solution was used in place of 10% cyclodextrin aqueous solution for the compounds marked with ** in Table 2.

[1408] Blood of each rat was collected from the tail tip before the administration and 30 minutes and 1, 2, 4, 8 and 24 hours thereafter (or at the time indicated in Table 2), and the plasma Ca²⁺ level and serum PTH level were measured. The data of the serum PTH level were statistically processed by the multiple comparison analysis in accordance with Steel's calibration by using the group 1 as the control. The results are shown in Table 2 and FIGS. 46-96.
